GETTY IMAGES A new strain of corona virus, a double mutant, has been discovered in samples obtained in India. It combines two different types of viruses to form the same virus. Scientists are trying to determine if the strain is more dangerous or if the vaccine is less effective. But what is this 'double mutant' type? Like any other type of virus, the corona virus changes its form from person to person. The large number of changes in shape is insignificant and does not affect the behavior of the virus. But sometimes it causes a change in the protein form of the virus that allows it to enter human cells. Therefore, these types of viruses are more dangerous and can spread easily. These strains cause more deadly diseases or are not vaccinated. Vaccines protect us from respiratory diseases, such as SARS-CO2, a virus that spreads COD-19.
